Three hundred and forty-one: make hamburgers

Rich, strong, democratic, civilized and harmonious?

Facing Du An's answer, Shu Yu rolled her eyes again.

"In our several large ticket shops such as North America and Europe, our publicity offensive has not stopped. In the new round of publicity offensive, the domestic box office situation has played a certain role in our publicity work," he said.

Shu Yu said, leaning against the window and looking outside, holding a glass of water in his hand.

She raised the glass of water to her mouth and wanted to drink it, but she didn't. When she looked down, she saw that the water in the glass had dried up without realizing it. Then she walked back from the window and bent down to pour water by herself while pouring water to Duane. "But this is not the key."

"Just like this overseas box office will definitely stimulate the domestic box office and achieve the result of boosting the box office, but it can be foreseen that the box office increase effect will not be too exaggerated. In my opinion, it would be good if the weekly box office can increase by 100 million."

“The same is true for overseas box offices.”

After pouring the water, Shu Yu stood up and walked back but did not stand at the window. Instead, she sat down on the sand on the other side, leaned on the sand, took a sip of the water in her hand and placed it on the table in front of her. She looked up at Du Ann, who was sitting behind the desk and said, "Although we invested funds in several major box offices to carry out a series of follow-up promotional activities, don't forget that the overseas box office was not as high as the domestic box office during our week. According to the team's original estimate, in the second week, relying on domestic advantages to drive publicity to stimulate overseas box office and make overseas box office catch up. There is no big problem with catching up with domestic box office. However, the box office figures they estimated in the second week were only in the range of 600 million to 700 million. How did the extra 200 million come from?"

Seeing Du An was about to speak again, Shu Yu quickly opened her mouth and blocked what she didn't want to hear that might appear from his mouth.

"If you still say that there is prosperity, democracy, etc., let's forget it. Our country has not output main theme movies before, but which one have those foreigners like to watch?"

In fact, not only does the people in China do not like to watch the main theme movies, but foreigners do not like to watch even more. Therefore, it is purely nonsense to say that foreigners are infected by the main theme spirit.

Du An glanced at Shu Yu, turned off a page on the monitor in front of him, then turned around with his butt with the chair under him, facing Shu Yu's face.

He didn't want to say anything and just make jokes, but Shu Yu was obviously not good at the visitor today. If he didn't give her a satisfactory explanation, based on his understanding of Shu Yu, she would probably be stalemate with him here.

"Because they are deeply infected."

Du An said the same thing as before. Before Shu Yu rolled his eyes again, he continued to say first, "I'm not fooling you."

"You also know that there are great cultural differences between our country and those overseas countries, especially those in Europe and the United States, so some movies that we think are wonderful seem to be unsatisfactory to them, while some things that we don't think are very good are extremely exciting to them. "Liberation Day" is an example of this."

"In the eyes of many domestic film critics, "Liberation Day" is empty, not deep enough, and not connotation enough. This is a major flaw, but in my opinion, this is actually a major advantage that requires such deep depth and connotation. What should I do? This is a simple movie, a movie that is so simple that it can be understood by individuals."

"If I want to make "Liberation Day" in depth and arrange it as thought-provoking as "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum", I don't want to do it, but why should I do that? "Flying Over the Crazy Asylum" has one, and the one I'm shooting now is "Liberation Day". In my opinion, "Liberation Day" should be a movie that everyone can understand and enjoy, so I simplify the whole story without the philosophical ideas unique to Chinese films, and try to minimize the identification barriers caused by cultural differences."

"This is from the perspective of cultural differences, and in the content."

Duan talked for a long time in anger, took the water cup in front of him and took a sip of water, then continued: "Many people say that "Liberation Day" is all special effects and pays too much attention to the picture. In comparison, the storyline has been weakened a lot, but I want to say that this is exactly what I want to do."

"Everyone has a high level of education, so some people can understand a story, while others can't understand it. If cultural differences are added, the situation will be even more complicated, but the picture is different. A bomb is thrown down and killed a group of people. As long as it is not a cognitive impairment, everyone can understand it and their feelings are generally the same."

"From here, we can see that compared with the story, the picture is a more effective means of communication, and now I am increasing the proportion of this effective means of communication and putting it to the extreme."

Speaking of this, Du An settled down, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "It seems that this can also be classified as cultural differences, which has increased the expression of the camera and the audience's attention is attracted to the wonderful and easy-to-understand camera. The so-called large scenes allow them to focus on audio-visual enjoyment. Cultural differences naturally cannot play a barrier here, and they can accept this movie more."

Finally, he made a summary, "In general, a simple but not rough story and wonderful scenes have tried to eliminate the barriers of cultural differences. I think this is the magic weapon for "Liberation Day" to win overseas."

After saying this, Duan saw Shu Yu sitting on the sand in front of her right and fell into deep thought.

Shu Yu didn't say anything, and he was idle. He stared at the monitor screen in front of him and started to open some information. It seemed that these were some summary reports on his recent situation in the theater. This office was also his office in Paramount. Today, he just took a break and came to take a look, but Shu Yu blocked the door.

The two groups have been established, which is good. The competition mechanism must be started quickly. In each vote, the popularity of the post bar must not be missing. This is not a place for retirement. It is a place to build this place into the cruelest "colosseum". Only with competition can we be creative. In addition, the cooperation method with the live broadcast platform under Origin must be confirmed quickly...

As he looked here, he suddenly heard Shu Yu speak.

"Can it improve overseas box office so simply?"

He looked up and saw Shu Yu looking at him.

"If it's so simple that it can make such a big increase in overseas box office, why didn't they do it before?"

Duane asked her: "If you are a chef who is proficient in Cantonese cuisine and you are going to participate in a cooking competition now, will you choose to make the raw crab meat stewed sea tiger wings that you are best at reflecting your level, or make a fried rice with eggs?"

Shu Yu understood a little.

"Besides, the hamburgers that foreigners like to eat instead of fried rice, are even more self-destructive to the 'chefs' in our country, making hamburgers is almost a shame."

Du An said leisurely.

Shu Yu asked, "What about you?"

"I?"

Duane smiled self-deprecatingly, "I am a graduate of New Oriental and I don't have the awareness of a chef. Making money is the ultimate goal for me. As long as I can make money, what's wrong with making hamburgers?" (To be continued.)8
